He was one of only five jocks to lead the nation in earnings for four straight years.
Pincay, Shoemaker, Baeza, and Bailey are the other four to accomplish that.
Winning the Kentucky Derby with a very good ride on Funny Cide and winning the Breeders Cup Classic with a great ride on Volponi made him pretty close to a cinch to get in one year soon.
